no. you can use mutt, or some other mailer too. The problem becomes this: Some of us read our e-mail in very diverse locations. From a windows machine one day, an X term the next, and then via the ssh client on a cisco at a POP the next. It's just polite to format your messages such that they will fit on a 80x24 screen with a fixed font size. I know people who prefer outlook (why, i don't know), or netscape, or many other mailers. If everyone would do the nice thing and format your messages, it would be appreciated. - Jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared () puck nether net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
